BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF GEORGIA:

SECTION 1.

An Act providing for a Board of Commissioners of Mitchell County, approved February 20, 1873 (Ga. L. 1873, p. 279), as amended, particularly by an Act approved April 1, 2002 (Ga. L. 2002, p. 3676), is amended by revising subsection (d) of Section 6 as follows: "(d) In case of a vacancy upon the board, regardless of the cause of such vacancy other than due to the expiration of a term of office, and:

(1) Such vacancy occurs during the first 21 months of the term, it shall be the duty of the board of commissioners to instruct the election superintendent of Mitchell County to call and conduct a special election to elect a qualified individual to serve out the remainder of such unexpired term and until a successor is duly elected and qualified. Such special election shall be held on the earliest of the following dates in an even-numbered year occurring immediately following the occurrence of the vacancy; provided, however, that the number of days between the call of the election and holding of the same satisfies applicable law. If the number of days between the earliest practical call of the election and holding of the election on the earliest of the following dates is less than required by law, then the special election shall be held on the second earliest of the following dates:

(A) The date of the presidential preference primary;

(B) The date of the general primary; or

Additionally, upon the occurrence of such a vacancy, the chief judge of the judicial circuit of which Mitchell County is a part shall appoint a qualified person to serve until a successor is elected and qualified at the special election held pursuant to this paragraph; or

(2) Such vacancy occurs during the last 27 months of the term, the chief judge of the judicial circuit of which Mitchell County is a part shall appoint a qualified person to serve the remainder of the unexpired term and until a successor is duly elected and qualified."

SECTION 2.

All laws and parts of laws in conflict with this Act are repealed.
